I lost 10 stone and got a tummy tuck WAY too soon – the skin on my stomach is jelly, don’t make the same mistake as me | The Sun

A FITNESS enthusiast has revealed she got a tummy tuck “too soon” during her weight loss journey and is now left with loose skin around her body. 

Emma lost an incredible 10 stone naturally and has used her TikTok account (@emmaa.getsfit) to document her progress from start to now. 

But at some point during her fitness journey, she appeared to think it was the right time to get a tummy tuck. 

Since then, she seems to have shed some more pounds, leaving her with excess skin around her tummy, arms and legs. 

Now, she’s warning other people who might be on a similar mission to be careful about going under the knife for the procedure before they’re truly ready. 

Posing in front of the mirror in a pair of jogging bottoms and a black and blue open shirt, Emma lifted her black top up to show off her flat stomach.

Moving from side to side to the tune of Armani White’s BILLIE EILISH., she told viewers that this is the image people might see on the social media platform Instagram. 

In the next scene, she zoomed in while pulling on her tummy in a bid to demonstrate how much loose skin there is, before explaining that this is “reality”. 

“Pov: you lost 150lbs and had a tummy tuck too soon,” she wrote over the clip with a crying with laughter emoji. 

People appeared impressed with her efforts to lose weight, praising her on the achievement despite her confession of getting a tummy tuck “too soon”.

“You look amazing and have added probably decades of good health to you life! A little extra skin hopefully just reveals how hard you’ve worked!” [sic] one person wrote. 

Another said she looks “great” and congratulated her on “the hard work” she put in. 

A third called her “inspiring” while a fourth chimed: “You still look amazing! I’m suddenly feeling very inspired.” 

Others suggested she not go for a full tummy tuck again and instead look into getting a fleur de lis surgery. 

During a traditional tummy tuck, the surgeon makes a horizontal incision from one hip bone to the other, while the fleur de lis procedure also includes a vertical incision from the bottom of the ribs until the pubic area to remove the excess skin. 

“You’ll need an FDL for that. Congrats on the progress!” one person wrote with a smiling emoji. 

Another said: “only way to help that is fleur de lis. But you still look fab,” and a third shared: “I think you just needed 360 lift and fleur de lis. Like I know a ref tummy tuck prob won’t give me 100%”.
